Line-ups?

Well, Dr. Pepper. Mourinho has been a serial failure in recent seasons in the CL which is in complete contradistinction to the propaganda unleashed on us football fans after the unfortunate series of events in 2010. He failed to reach a single CL final with either Real Madrid or Chelsea (let...

The rational part of me wants Juventus to go through tonight, for very obvious reasons, but a more perverse part of my personality is intrigued by the prospect of a Clasico final which will be beyond epic and will also go further into dismantling the Jose Mourinho myth.

No, the experience of following football for decades necessitates that these players are already in, or soon will be, in terminal decline. Just look at Xavi or Stevie G, did they forget how to play football? No, they just got old. Accumulation of games also means that the wear and tear catches...

OK. In any case, money is the primary factor in today's football no matter how one chooses to spin it.

So it's not one corporation controlling Bayern, but 3. OK.

Bayern will have a lot on their hands with replacing their key players. Ribery is 32 and will be 33 by the time CL quarter-finals will be played again. Robben is 31 and will be 32 once CL KO football resumes next year. Lahm is 31 and will be 32 once CL KO football resumes next year...

I don't know about where our president is going Mr. Sterling, but our team is definitely going to Berlin for the CL final on June the 6th.

How heavily in debt are they? And why are you so bitter for a statement that is patently true?

Yeah? What did he say?

Real must also be knackered due to their tough games vs Sevilla and Valencia back to back with the two CL semis.

Well I am still waiting for a reply from Bayern fans over their multiple defeats at the hands of Arsenal/City in recent seasons. I am sure they just couldn't be bothered and had everything under control, even if the opponent only needed a single goal to do catastrophic damage in some cases. But...

After beating Bayern 3-0, and then going 1-2 up on their own patch at HT with them needing 5 more goals in the 2nd half to go through, Bayern fans brag about how they made it uncomfortable for us. But do not mention to them, that Arsenal drew them on aggregate and needed only one more goal to go...

The club going for their 4th CL in 10 years. Everybody else is just sharing what is left. That's who.

No, I am simply pin-pointing the primary factor here. This is how reason works, you differentiate the fundamental from the secondary.

That is the problem of course. I am leaning towards Juventus for the very obvious reason you outline above, and also because Juventus are the lesser team here (fortunate enough though, like Bayern, to participate in a token league) But still, the pain of people such as Sterlingfan2000 is...

Very easy to answer this question. A more interesting one would be: "Why are there so many Barca-haters out there?"

As much as it is rational for us Barca fans to want Juventus to win tonight, the extension and deepening of the agony suffered by Premfaces and BuLi fans alike is just too much of a good thing I feel. Give me an El Clasico final (most epic club game ever) and a second all-La-Liga final on the...

What "nice" relations are you referring to?

LOL right back. The new coach could have done very little (or nothing at all) if we were still playing up-front with the likes of Pedro, Alexis or Ibra. Suarez and Neyboi are simply streets ahead. Directness would never be as effective without SN. Rakitic? Do you think that Rakitic made...
